Samsung S9 appears on the (far) horizon, as Samsung and Qualcomm announce working on its processor

Never enough Samsung news! Samsung Forever! Not a day without Samsung! These are the thoughts that cross my mind as I read up on yet another Samsung news. This one is (relatively) big, though. Qualcomm and Snapdragon have officially announced that the two companies (smartphone and CPU developers) are starting to work on the Galaxy S9’s processor. Nothing else is known for sure. It is safe to say that the next CPU’s name will probably be Snapdragon 845, as the now-used CPU is Snapdragon 835. Either Samsung itself or Taiwan’s TSMC will be the ones to produce it. That is all ...

Benchmark tests indicate that the US Galaxy S8 is worse than the global model

I have just read a pretty long, for its topic, article in which the writer complains about how the North American Galaxy S8 is worse than it’s global counterpart. Long story short, yes, it is slightly worse. GSM Arena performed a multitude of benchmark tests on both devices, and in almost all of them the global version of the phone was faster than its US counterpart. Why? Probably because of the difference in CPU’s. American Samsung Galaxy S8 is packing Snapdragon 835, while global edition of the phone comes with slightly faster Exynos 8895. That is ...

Trouble in paradise, part II. This time, Samsung Galaxy S8 has a white screen problem

Galaxy S8 is barely reaching its first customers, and it already has a number of problems reported. Remember the red screen issue I wrote about yesterday? Well, get ready for more, as Samsung has reportedly received a significant number of complaints about a white screen glitch. According to some of the Galaxy S8 users, S8’s messaging app likes to turn the whole screen white after an emote is being chosen from the list of emoticons. Simply restarting the messaging app does not seem to fix the problem. Annoying, right? Thankfully, there are two things you can try doing before heading ...

Trouble in paradise? Galaxy S8 has a reddish tint on its display

Whoops… first shipments of Galaxy S8 have begun, and people are already complaining. A number of South Korea customers have stated that they have a problem with the phone, namely a red tint that blemishes the device’s display. Samsung’s reaction was that, quote, ”It is not a quality problem and it can be adjusted with the phone itself. If the color still appears to be reddish, customers can change it at the service center”. Still, a large number of complaining customers say that adjusting the colour settings does not work.Lets hope, for Samsung’s sake, ...

Leaked picture of Samsung Galaxy J5 (2017)

Just because everyone and their mom buys Samsung Galaxy S8 does not mean that Samsung has forgot about us poor people and our mid-range needs.

Model-numbered SM-J530, the device runs on Android Nougat (probably, may be Marshmallow). No other specifications of the phone are ...
